Inova

Q: Is Inova a good school?

Inova ranks 312 th of 469 Arizona schools. SchoolDigger rates this school 2 stars out of 5.

Summary:

Inova is a public virtual high school located in Casa Grande, Arizona, serving grades 9-12 with an enrollment of 80 students. It is part of the Casa Grande Union High School District, which is ranked 348 out of 540 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Inova has a significantly higher percentage of Hispanic students (62.5%) compared to the nearby schools, which range from 45-67% Hispanic. Academically, Inova lags behind the surrounding schools, with only 5% of 11th-grade students proficient or better in Science, compared to 13-14% at the nearby Casa Grande Union High School and Vista Grande High School. In Math, Inova had 10% proficiency, while the district schools were at 18-19%. However, Inova had a relatively high 4-year graduation rate of 94.3% in 2021-2022, significantly higher than the 68.4% and 76.3% rates at the nearby district high schools.

Inova's high graduation rate coupled with its high dropout rate of 7.0% in 2021-2022 (compared to 5.1-6.8% at the other district high schools) suggests that the school may be successful in graduating a core group of students, but struggles to retain a significant portion of its student population. Additionally, Inova's virtual school model likely contributes to its high student-teacher ratio of 40:1, which could be a factor in its lower academic outcomes compared to the traditional district high schools. The nearby ASU Preparatory Academy - Casa Grande High School and Mission Heights Preparatory High School, both charter schools, generally outperform Inova and the district high schools in academic measures, highlighting the significant disparities in educational outcomes that can exist within a local community.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
